Everyone in Wuyu is thinking that leader Wuyun can successfully return to the tribe and make a comeback with his people next year, but the good dream has not lasted for a few days.
The envoys who went to exchange brought Wu Yun back, but unfortunately there was only one head. They could not imagine why the leader who had obviously escaped could still be caught in the vast forest.
Not to mention someone who has been running for more than ten days, even if Wu Cang and the others were given half a day to escape, it would be difficult for Teng Snake to catch up.
Even though they almost followed Karasuba's men into the forest, they finally caught up to them at night, waiting for Karasura and the others to rest.
After all, there are mountains and forests all around. If you dig into the mountains, it is impossible to find any traces as long as you pay a little attention. Moreover, they also know that Song Xuan only went to participate in the exchange meeting. As for how the two parties met, they have no idea. And know it.
Although the few prisoners who followed knew something about the situation, they were all ordered to die by Song Xuan. If there was any leakage, they would be the next ones hanging at the door.
So no matter how other people asked, a few of them said they didn't know. Teng She was also very strict with them, and they didn't have much time to chat. They were exhausted from working from morning to night, so they were exhausted and could discuss it. There aren't many opportunities either.
As long as Wu Yun's head is a deterrent, Song Xuan is now worried that these prisoners are not honest enough. Now it seems that unless Wu Yu can send a large number of people, there is basically no chance for them to escape.
With the corpses collected from Soaring Snake and the captives, Karasuba's number of people who had already been asked from the captives could basically be matched.
Although there is an error, it is only a few people. If there are only a few people alone, it is unlikely that they will escape back to the Karasuba Tribe, not to mention that these people are likely to die elsewhere.
After all, they had been chasing for such a long time. Although most of Karasuba's people were moving together, it was inevitable that some would get separated. Fortunately, these people did not have much supplies on them, and the possibility of survival was very small.
The place where the food is stored has long been touched by Shi Feng and the two of them. If someone is lucky enough to escape Teng She's pursuit, is still familiar with the route, and can go through many difficulties, and finally returns to Karasuba's situation, Song Xuan could only say that his luck was too good.
However, next year Song Xuan also decided that even if he could not visit Karasuba, he would still have to arrange multiple sentries in the north of the tribe. Even with such gains now, he still had to be cautious about Karasuba.
But that will be a matter for next year. Even if Karasuba knew about it this year, he would not have time to send people over. After all, it will be winter soon. Once the snow closes the mountains, even if there is enough food outside, it will be a dead end.
After the meal, Song Xuan still followed Shihua with Xue'er. She didn't have to work for these two days. She just wanted to get familiar with the things in the tribe. However, everyone's requirement for her was to serve the gods well, and it didn't matter whether she worked or not. As long as he can take good care of Song Xuan in life.
The tribe didn't send her to work. Compared with the divine envoy, everything else was obviously nothing. It was rare to convince the divine envoy to find a girl. Teng She and the others were very interested in it. Shihua was even more accustomed to Song Xuan's usual sexual behavior. I told Xue'er everything, for fear that Xue'er would do something wrong and Song Xuan would be kicked out again.
Although everyone in Teng She knew that the divine envoy had a good temper, they also knew that Song Xuan was quite stubborn sometimes, so naturally they could not give up this rare opportunity easily.
"Hua, prepare a set for Xue'er as well, just the ones I usually use!"
"Okay, angel!"
Song Xuan didn't know why Shihua seemed very happy when she heard this, she could only pretend that she didn't see anything.
The things Song Xuan was talking about were naturally the pots and pans used in Song Xuan's house. The hygiene level of the Wolf tribe was not as good as even the sloppiest among the Teng Snakes, let alone Song Xuan.
Shihua also knew how particular Song Xuan was about these aspects, and he could learn other things slowly, but after all, he lived with the divine envoy. If he could not meet the hygiene requirements, he would probably be kicked out soon.
There are pots and hides in the warehouse. The branches that Song Xuan usually uses for brushing his teeth are also cut down and placed in the main room. Anyone who needs them can just get them by themselves. After all, they are branches and they don’t last long, so they are placed in the main room. It's more convenient inside the house.
Song Xuan was given special treatment. Every few days, Shihua would give him two sticks. From now on, this kind of task would naturally be handed over to Xue'er.
However, when she heard that Song Xuan brushed his teeth with branches dipped in salt every day, Xueer still opened her little mouth wide.
Salt is a very precious thing even for the wolf tribe that is doing this business. After all, they expect this thing to be exchanged for food from other tribes. Moreover, the price charged by the Black Feather tribe is not low. If you come back again and again, if you don't save more, You really can't make that little difference.
Therefore, when it comes to the use of salt, the people of the Wolf tribe are better than other tribes. They count the amount they use every day on their fingers. If they can eat it happily at ordinary times, they have to use the salt in other places during major celebrations. , which is even more unthinkable.
But Teng Snake even brushes his teeth with salt, and it seems that this is the case for most people in the tribe.
However, Teng Snake is not as squandering as Xue'er imagined. Even Song Xuan only dips a little bit every time. After all, too much is too salty, and sometimes it is paired with bamboo charcoal, which is not only used for salt. The less it is, the better the taste will be, and the cleaning ability is not bad either.
But the disadvantage is that it looks a bit scary when brushing your teeth. The black water flows down the corners of your mouth, which is a bit scary.
Seeing that everyone was busy with their own affairs, Song Xuan also started to get busy.
It is enough for other people to take the captives to do the reclamation and building houses. We are all very good at doing these things. Now, in addition to clearing the tree roots in the new rice fields, we are also expanding the inner courtyard of the tribe. The construction plan was finalized yesterday. Just do it as agreed upon.
Tengshe planned to build a larger house to replace the existing main house. The main house already had a lot of room left at the time, but no one expected that it would expand so fast, and now it is not enough.
I simply took advantage of this opportunity to build a bigger one. The materials used in the tribe have been prepared before. It can be used once it is built, and it is much more convenient.
But before that, the group of animals from the tribe were the first to be moved away, but Song Xuan still kept the deer group. First, Uncle Lu was indeed humane enough to treat him as an ordinary livestock. Song Xuan also I feel that it is too much of a waste of animal materials. Secondly, the number of deer is not large, and the smell is not so smoky, so it will not affect them if they are arranged in the yard.
If it's too far away, Song Xuan is also afraid that Uncle Lu will come and cause trouble for him. After all, the people in the tribe can't stop him. The relationship between Lu Qun and Wangcai's family is quite good. The two are enemies of life and death in the wild, but in Teng She Harmonious.
What Song Xuan needs to do now is to refine the metal ore collected from Wuyu.
After all, Karasuba is just the simplest primary use, and even the traces of knocking are not obvious.
Since Song Xuan knew that it was most likely to be copper, he naturally wanted to make it. If he could enter the Bronze Age, the tribe would have crossed a level.
"Stone, how is the ore?"
"The angel has been smashed to pieces!"
This is something that Song Xuan has already explained before setting off. Even if he fails in the end, he must try it. Song Xuan is not willing to just make the simplest use like Wu Yu, and the quantity is not large, even if he uses There will be no qualitative change in the improvement of combat power.
The furnace used to refine the ore has also been built, which is still quite different from the brick kiln. Song Xuan has no similar experience and can only rely on imagination.
The stove is not big, only about one meter wide. It uses the best bricks in the tribe. These bricks are also carefully selected from stones so that they will crack during the firing process.
Refining copper ore must be maintained at the highest temperature for a long time, and the bricks used must be able to withstand it. In addition, enough charcoal is prepared for the stone, and the trees for burning the charcoal are all the best. Those stones are usually not willing to be used.
In addition to the upper and lower openings of the stove, there is another one not far above the fire opening. This is naturally a place for placing ore. The ore will be placed in a basin, which can be placed directly on the stand made in the stove. There is a handle long enough that it can be carried out directly wrapped in animal skin.
This cannot be like making pottery, waiting for the stove to cool down completely before going in to pick it up. Refining metal must maintain a high temperature at all times, and the progress must be monitored. Without such a port, it will definitely not work.
Everything Song Xuan could think of before, he had already told Shitou before he left. Shitou had basically prepared it during this period, and was just waiting for Song Xuan to come back and work on it together.
When Song Xuan drew big cakes for Teng She and others, everyone was somewhat skeptical. They had never seen anything that could cut down trees at will, and there would not even be any cracks. At least they had never seen anything like this in the mountains. I have found this stone.
But after seeing the weapons that Karasuba brought, everyone finally believed it. During the battle, some people noticed that Karasuba's weapons were a bit powerful, especially those who were shot by Karasuba's archers. deep.
The people from Karasuba attacked from behind, and the weapons they obtained put a lot of pressure on the Tengshe people. The weapons they held looked similar, but they just couldn't confront the opponent head-on. The stone ax of the Karasuba tribe , struck on the wooden handle of Soaring Snake's weapon, and a dent was clearly visible, but Soaring Snake's stone ax was far less powerful.
